Religious nutties nowadays tend to throw perceived heretics and apostates off buildings, or just simply stab them.

The title of this thread made me laugh.

It would just prove Heaven's Gate was right.

Going on our past history, if we encountered aliens we would just kill them. Problem solved.

I hope that the religious nutties do not discover me.

I suspect some higher beings and aliens and human governments understand the ontological shock factor and have chosen a slow-drip approach to allowing disclosure.

Yep, all you have to do is buy the next book or go to the next conference, ad infinitum.

Everybody drips when walking in the rain.

But it is part of slow-drip disclosure. I feel just over the decades of my lifetime, alien subjects keep becoming less weird and more and more mainstream.

Please post your peer reviewed evidence of this please, with all irrefutable facts from the interwebz if you would.

Run chicken little day of disclosure is at hand,

And still zero supporting evidence of aliens ever visiting earth. ( Or even existing )

Think of it like airline restrictions. Certain things aren’t allowed to go.

Let’s just hope the aliens eat the religious nutters and leave the rest of us alone.

Whoa, slow down there Andretti. How about you explain that Heaven's Gate bull**** you posted earlier.

[pallidin]

For myself I have no problem reconciling my own ideas of a "spiritual reality", including a "God-head", with advanced extraterrestrial life, and for that matter even dinosaurs, the Big Bang, etc.

I'm an equal opportunity explorer who considers Reality to be unimaginably awesome and practically magical.

[Berwen]

Judging by our human history any alien would avoid contacting us for knowing that we have always killed things we don't understand or agree with!!

[Trelane]

@Zebra3still waiting on you to explain/clarify the statements you made about Heave's Gate. Clearly, you have a point to make, let's hear it.🧐

Tick tock, tick tock...🕰️

Not true.

I don't understand excel formulas but I have yet to kill one.

I don't agree that a particular football team is "America's Team", I have yet to kill anyone based off that false comment.

 

So yeah, not that broad brush of an evaluation of human behavior.
